Giant Microbes. Yes, all the plushie viruses and bacteria you have ever wanted, and more. I think the Mad Cow would make a fine doorstop.

  • ahem :(
  • Comments don't count! I want the krill - so cuddly!
  • What, no chlamydia? How disappointing.
  • Who knew ebola could be so adorable.
  • this is old tracicle. I'm surprised you didn't already know about this. I have rhinovirus, streptococcus pyogenes, ebola, and my special favorite: yersinia pestis!! (bubonic plague) I really want sleeping sickness, it's SOOOOOOO kewt!
  • I hadn't seen it, and I think it's awesome.
  • Simpsons did it! Here's the door to your body, see? And these are oversized novelty germs. That's influenza, that's bronchitis, and this cute little cuddle-bug is pancreatic cancer. Here's what happens when they all try to get through the door at once. 'Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo! Move it, chowderhead!' We call it "Three Stooges Syndrome."
  • Ah, the Simpsons! Is there ANY issue that hasn't been addressed there?
  • I prefer to wear my germs instead of cuddling them.
  • The urge to give my gf the Clap is almost more than I can bear...
  • I have Giardia, and have named him Gerry Adams, naturally... a nauseating, unpleasant parasite causing a great deal of grief to many human beings. The plush toy on the other hand is blue and fluffy with little string flagellae and wee googly eyes. squeeee! or something.
  • Heh.. I bought a bunch of these fellas a couple of years ago and left them around the house for my wife to find (she's a bit of a "microbe nerd" - coming home from work all excited about some "cute" parasite or infectious agent she happens to encounter). Still, they seem to have some new ones since I last looked, so maybe I can give her the clap
